Heya all, hope everyone is ready for the weekend

 

Thanx!

Good Luck, Dont spoil her too much...you may regret it later!

 

Nope!!! how about you? where you been hiding?

It's crossed my mind already too Mark! LOL....

 

Lisa, I am an auto repair tech for a used car dealer in Phoenix.

Its amazing how much you use your back for this work.

I am still a bit sore, but I need the discipline of an 8 hour workday to get better.

 

Ahh..I thought you were a mechanic but I didn't want to assume.

No better way to do it than to just do it!

Ok so I got some pictures of Tony with ME in them. He attacked me in the bathroom and I had my phone with me.

 

Thats a cute cat Lisa!

Brent, just been "busy" haha. Dumb little story about why I got busy.

 

That is a fact,when I work on a car I run it up on ramps so I don't have to bend as much

 

Yes sir! Im definitely ready after pretty good week of work! Almost beer thrirty!

Im curious like Brent, where you been hidin?!

 

That cat has taken to ya alright!

 

Very cute kitty Lisa!

ummm...okay....lead us in than not deliver? whats the dumb story? haha!

 

Yeah Sheldon,

It might not be dumb...it might be entertaining

 

We might be a visual group but personally, I love a dumb story!

 

well I only have dumb stories, thats why I bring them here, so my wife doesnt have to listen to them....
SHARE!!!!!

 

Ok the dumb story.

Workers comp cleared me to go back to work now, but not heavy hard labour work. So i call up this one fella that was advertising a job hauling cattle. I talk to him a few times and he offers me the job.

So I go into town to get this kenworth that Im gonna be driving and I have to go get it from another employees house. My woman wasnt sure about that, the fact they didnt have a shop, and no place to park their own trucks and whatnot. I shrug it off. He tells me Im gonna be driving to this other city with a reefer and drop it off and get my cattle liner and go. So I go to get the reefer and no go, it wasnt there. So after some screwing around they realize they have the wrong trailer number, and I get hooked up.

I drive to this next city and talk to the people in charge. They hand me a ten page application/papers and whatnot I have to got through.

Huh? I thought I was employed by this other guy... Anyways I fill out all this paperwork, they tell me Im good to go, THEN they tell me Im not gonna be hauling cattle, but Im gonna be doing city deliveries in another city, 8 hours away.

Well now Im starting to wonder what the hell did I get into here. The first guy that hired me was new to this, and turns out he sub contracted under this second company (a reputable company), but didnt tell me any of this.

So the original deal was Im hauling cattle, 8 days on 4 days off, between three prairie provinces, and now I get there and get told (not offered, I get told) that im gonna be doing city deliveries (which I DO NOT want to do! ALOT less pay and i prefer not to drive in the cities if I dont have to).

I call up Sandi and talk to her about this and that I wasnt having good feelings about it and whatnot, but told her whatever if they send me off right away, Ill go try it. Well SEVEN hours later, they tell me that Im gonna have to wait till the next day to get out on the road (14 hours later) and to enjoy the sleeper in my truck.

No thanks, I call up the guy, ask him where he wants his truck(luckily he said back in the city where Im from) and tell him Im no longer interested.

Ill be honest, I felt kinda like a jack@ss after the whole deal. Sandi was trying to drill it in my head that they were the ones that screwed up and werent organized and not me, but I still felt stupid about the whole situation.

Anyways I got back pretty late and took yesterday to do some of my own business planning and whatnot, to get my company going hard. I wont be able to do much actual work till spring though.


That actualy kinda felt good to write it all out.

 

I don't blame the cat one bit -- do you??
